  2. Connect a USB cable between the PC host and the OpenSDA USB port on the target board.

  3. Open a serial terminal on PC for OpenSDA serial device with these settings:

    • 115200 baud rate

    • 8 data bits

    • No parity

    • One stop bit

    • No flow control

  4. Download the program to the target board.

Running the demo

The demo does not require user interaction. The application will automatically start advertising the Current Time Service and the Reference Time Update Service and it will accept the first connection request it receives. Once the client configures the Current Time Characteristic CCCD for notifications, the server will periodically notify its local time value to the client.
